Zvenigora

Two years before the release of his celebrated collectivist drama "Earth" (1930), Aleksander Dovzhenko began his "Ukraine Trilogy" with this religiously charged silent drama in which an old man relates stories of a hidden mountain treasure to his grandson. The tales fill the young man's heart with the ambition to locate the mythical riches. Freely mixing historical fact and fantastical fiction, the film stars Nikolai Nademsky, Semyon Svashenko. 90 min. Standard; Soundtrack: music score. Silent with music score.
